Patented Dec. 17, 1929 UNETED STATES GUISEPIPE SFERRAZZA, OF UNIONVILLE, CONNECTICUT GARMENT Application filed March 14, 1927.

This invention relates to improvements in a pattern for garments and more particularly to outer garments worn by men and boys.

A particular object of the invention is the provision of a mens outer garment pattern which combines the functions of trousers, coat and vest and which can be made from one piece of cloth.

A further object of the invention is the provision of a pattern for a combination coat and trousers consisting of a single piece of cloth cut in an economical manner so as to provide a combination garment for men and boys which can be manufactured with a minimum of material and of labor.

Further objects of the invention will be apparent from the specification and drawings in which Fig. 1 is a plan View of the pattern I have designed for my one piece combination coat,

vest and trousers.

Fig. 2 is a perspective front view of the finished garment as worn.

Fig. 3 is a perspective rear view of the finished garment as worn, though it is evident that Figs. 2 and 3 do not illustrate the same garment exactly, as in Fig. 2, long trousers are shown and in Fig. 3 the view is of a combination coat and knickerbockers embodying my invention.

nected lower and upper portions A, and B, re-

spectively. The lower portion A, in this instance is medially bifurcated as indicated at 2324:, 17-20, 1821, and 1922, so as to effect the legs of trousers. The upper portion B, is cut to define a coat back, as indicated at 6, 7, 9 and 10, and pairs of wings, one pair of which effect coat front panels at a, and Z), respectively, while the other or remaining pair of wings effect coat sleeves c, and (l, re-

spectively.

The wings forming the coat front panels a, and b, are cut into or recessed correspondingly to the marginal edge of the coat back to match the latter at said margin, which is The sec- Serial No. 175,154.

tions or portions A, and B, are slotted at 11, 2-2, 33, 4.4, 55, 88, 1111, 1212, 13-13, 1 l1 1, 15-15, 1616, 1717, 18, 20, 25, 31, and 32, for the shaping of the portions effecting the garments in the use of the pattern. The stripmarked 30, 31, and 32, in Figure 1, ofthe drawings repre sents a pattern to effect the coat collar, which is attached separately but may be omitted entirely if desired.

The lower portion or section A, at its edge next to the upper portion or section B, on opposite sides of the coat back, is formed with extensions 6, and f, which arereversely inclined at their free edges and these when, positioned opposite the coat back effect a vest, as will be clearly obvious. It should be carefully noted that the numbers such as 1919, 22-22, which are repeated throughout the drawings, indicate the edges of the cloth which are to be sewn together and the position where such edges are to be sewn.

For instance, in forming one of the trouser legs the pattern is folded over until 22 meets 22, 21 meets 21, 20 meets 20, 25 meets the complementary 25 on the other trouser leg pattern, etc. etc., making the finishing of the garment a matter of extreme simplicity after the pattern is cut, the meeting edges of the cloth being sewed together after the cloth has been properly folded.

The extra cloth in the portion of the trouser leg marked 5-5 is for the purpose of allowing for any inequalities in the sizes of the two trouser legs as customarily fashioned.

It is apparent that the lining of the garment can be cut and sewn to the garment at the same time as the cutting of the cloth for the original pattern.

It will be apparent that further modifications and variations can be made in this method of cutting a pattern and finishing the garment without departing from the spirit of my invention Which I consider a novel way of fashioning a completed garment which has the full characteristics of trousers, coat and vest from one piece of cloth.

Having fully described my invention, what I claim is:
